Baleroto, the
decorative structure that serves as the
court's reception area
Baleroto is the open structure situated
directly behind the twin statues of the
karaton's stone guards, Cingkorobolo and
Boloupoto. It was built during the reign of
Paku Buwono X (r. 1893-1939). Here too a
chronogram, koyo marganing sariro tunggal,
or 'resembling the path to unity defines its
year of construction, pointing to the
numbers 3 - 5 - 8 - I or Aj 1853 / AD 1922.
Baleroto is used by important guests who are
on their way to audience. It now serves as
the place where one gets out of one's car
(formerly: carriage) when arriving at the
karaton - after which the car is parked
elsewhere. |
